You're A Brave Gal


You're A Brave Gal
A Conversation With An Acquaintance
Elkton, MD
August 2015



"You're a brave gal for going to India all by yourself or maybe you're just crazy. I think it's more of the latter," she 
tells me as she comments on my recent trip to the Ganges River.

"So going to India is not your cup of tea?" I ask with a bit of sarcasm.

"Nope, not even the slightest interest" she says in a voice of great certainty.

"Well, where would you want to go?" I ask.

"I only want to go to places where they speak English and everyone is blonde- haired and blue-eyed: Ireland,
 England, Norway, Scotland.  Places like that," she tells us as our friend with a bi-racial son listens in.
